L 'Oliva Verde in Gateshead

Couldn’t fault anything, amazing with all tables, patient and professional, highly recommend. Food was outstanding and the bill even better!! For a busy Saturday night the 2 lasses working were amazing, even handled a rather tipsy customer with nothing but respect without disturbing any other diners. We will be back.

Food amazing as always . Very cozy warm atmosphere, staff are so friendly and welcoming. This is my favourite restaurant, so lucky to have this on our door step .

This restaurant has a lovely atmosphere, delicious food and friendly welcoming staff. I visited today for a tradional family lunch and was delighted with how lovelt it was. The food was all cooked perfectly and was a very generous portion. Can't wait to return .

Amazing place good amazing and the staff we’re fantastic we will be back party of 20 of us all had an excellent time we will be back for sure

SIMPLE FOOD, WELL COOKED AND EXCELLENT Service. Enjoyed the whole experience, trattoria par excellence. Please try any of the fish dishes, the salmon in parma ham was spot on

The best steak night ever. Fantastic food, superb value for money. 2 steaks, sauces, bottle of wine, 2 pints and 2 deserts under £60. Staff are amazing. Could ask for a better night out xx

Went for dinner myself and my mam. Had great service from the staff and the food was lovely. Couldn’t fault it. Would recommend

I don't want to write this, as the more people that know the less tables will be available to come back. Brilliant, charming, delicious! The local restaurant you always dreamed of. The staff are brilliant... Charming and great with us ... So easy going but attentive and knowledgeable. Food is huge in portion and packed with flavour ... No skimping ... I'm on my back full after an amazing first and second course. Frankly the best lil Italians ... I love this place I now wish I had space for the swordfish special Ps chef is handing out samples of his homemade bread to put feelers out ... Please experiment on me more 🤤

Fantastic food first time eating there will definitely be back, soon as you walked in had a lovely friendly atmosphere great night and the staff are lovely

This was our first time visiting, for my partner and myself as a birthday meal for my partner (without the kids!) Atmosphere - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It's a lovely little restaurant located above a local pub. It's a nice environment, well decorated and maintained, with some modern background music. Staff - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The staff were absolutely amazing; going above and beyond to help me choose a drink! I honestly couldn't decide. They were very friendly, even throwing the occasional joke, which I personally like. Food & Drink - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Their menu is primarily Italian. Our mains came extremely quickly, piping hot and massive portions. We ordered a starter of a fancy garlic bread to come with our main, which was absolutely massive! They have a good selection of deserts, hot drinks and plenty of cold drink choices, including an extensive cocktail menu. Overall, huge portions and extremely tasty. Price - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ For the portion sizes we received, the quality of the food and the brilliant service, the pricing was perfect. Overall, it's a fantastic, local restaurant serving tasty food, brilliant service and perfect for couples, friends or family dining.

Food and service EXCELLENT!! I visit regularly and always impressed by the menu especially the specials board. Easy to locate, parking and metro line.

Food was lovely and a good selection, staff were very friendly. We’ve been thinking of coming for ages and glad we’ve finally visited, we’ll be back again!

I order 2 Sunday lunches for takeaway every week from Le Olive Verdi. The food is beautiful and plentiful. Cannot get anywhere nicer.

Superb quality food. Prepared in house and catering brilliantly for dietary requirements (gluten and dairy free). Great service and friendly front of house people. Don’t be put off by it being above a lively pub.

Another amazing night food is fabulous along with dessert's. Gemma and Maddie are so welcoming and as my son says the bread is wonderful!!!😋

Gemma sense of humour, passion and knowledge of the menu all outstanding, the food serious top notch!! Keep it up guys excellent job and deserve all the success !

Everything about this food was fantastic, proper traditional home cooked Italian food, but the real star is the desserts. Three of us got three different desserts and all of them were mind blowing! Whoever makes them is not paid enough! Out waitress Gemma was lovely too! Had us laughing so hard my face muscles were tired! Can’t wait to book back in
